11/22 Is MENSA really something special, or is it just overhyped? \_ As I qualify to join, I'd have to guess overhyped :) -chialea |

12/22 I liked The Royal Tanenbaums (a movie) much more than LOTR, and I read all the tolkien stuff. Am I insane? \_You're asking for a psychological assessment from the motd? Yes, you are insane. \_ everyone's entitled to his/her own opinion. you're insane if you think anybody really cares. \_ grumpy! \- hey are there some indian fellows in teh movie? i understand some of my associates are in it. ok tnx --psb \_ there's an indian guy who was also in Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, this is not surprising since the same guy wrote and directed all 3 movies. \- oh i thought his dad was in it. is there an older fellow in it too? ok tnx |

12/22 How do you make OpenSSH 2.5.2p2 works with Debian Linux 2.2 r4? ssh into this machine kept on getting denied while everything works fine with OpenSSH 1.2.3 (precompiled for Debian). Does that mean Debian 2.2r4 doesn't support ssh2x? Thx in advance! - jthoms |

12/22 Has anyone using a FreeBSD box as a ppp client had trouble with it crashing upon dial request? Any suggestions? -John \_ which release? \_ Wups, sorry. 4.1-R, pppd is version 2.3pl5. I'm running it on a Thinkpad x20 and trying to get it to use the built-in modem either for kernel or user ppp; either way, the moment it tries to start using cuaa0 the system irrevocably freezes with no messages in /var/log/*. I recall having trouble with 3.5-R on a Thinkpad 600E crashing the moment I attached anything to com1, and wonder whether it's related. I think ppp.conf and friends look okay. -John 3.5-R on a Thinkpad 600E crashing the moment I attached anything to com1, and wonder whether it's related. I think ppp.conf and friends look okay. -John \_ didnt IBM start using winmodems? --Jon \_ yes, but they also wrote a Linux driver for them. -tom \_ Ah, tom, ever so quick with the useless yet egotistic answer of "Use Linux". --!psb \_ When I can get a linux powered bike at compusa or gateway (or dell for you dell fans -- I know you're out there!) I'll ride that everyday. Until then, I use what works, not what's cool or I encountered first. \_ I believe the Xircom & Lucent winmodems on Thinkpads should actually work with FreeBSD. -John |

12/22 God, I hate Networksolutions *SO* much! DIE! DIE! DIE! \_ why are you still using them? Practically everyone else is cheaper and suck a lot less. Try gandi: http://www.gandi.net I'm a lot happier there. - ajani \_ Or even if you dont like dealing with a french company, http://register.com or any tucows registrar. --jon \_ Gandi is brilliant--you should rather judge a registrar based on their TOS and conflict resolution policy. -John \_ I've used http://register.com before, and have been less than impressed by their domain management interface. For example, changing DNS servers is a bitch, and very counter intuitive. As John said above, Gandi also has a very nice TOS and generally seems clued. - ajani \_ I'm trying desperately to move my domains away from them but they won't let me. I own the names from before there were any choices. --desperately trying to get away from NS. |
